An 18-year-old man was walking in the area of east 24th Street and Ash Avenue in Greeley late Saturday night when he was apparently struck by a vehicle in the roadway.

The victim sustained severe head injuries and was not able to give information about the vehicle to police, said Greeley police Sgt. Joe Tymkowich. He was found by a passerby as he laid in the eastbound lanes of 24th Street and initially was conscious.
